n March 1945, Nazi Germany placed its final hope in the Siegfried Line — a vast system of concrete bunkers, dragon’s teeth, and fortified positions built to stop any Allied invasion of the Reich. German planners believed it would take months to break. Adolf Hitler believed it would hold.
General George S. Patton believed it was already obsolete.
While other Allied commanders prepared for costly frontal assaults, Patton executed a maneuver that shattered the logic of static defense. By crossing the Moselle, racing behind the fortifications, and striking where the Germans never expected, Patton rendered the Siegfried Line strategically useless in just 48 hours. The concrete remained — but its purpose was destroyed.
This documentary explores Operation Undertone, the collapse of German Army Group G, and the decisive moment when speed, maneuver, and audacity proved more powerful than the strongest fortifications in Europe. It is the story of how Patton didn’t smash the Siegfried Line head-on — he made it irrelevant, accelerating the fall of Nazi Germany and opening the road to the Rhine.
